Troubleshooting
Shoes feel stiff initially
Nubuck leather can be stiff at first. Wear them for short periods initially to break them in gradually. Using a leather conditioner specifically for nubuck can also help soften the material.
Discoloration on leather
Nubuck leather is susceptible to discoloration from moisture and oils. Ensure shoes are dry before storing. Use a nubuck eraser for light marks and a specific nubuck cleaner for more stubborn stains. Always test cleaners on an inconspicuous area first.
Slipping despite 'slip-resistant' sole
The 'slip-resistant' feature is optimized for typical urban surfaces. Performance can vary on extremely wet, icy, or oily surfaces. Ensure the sole is clean, as debris can affect traction.
